Does anyone work in HR or management? Just trying to clear something up...
I know if you work over 6 hours, you're entitled to a lunch break (my work don't pay for lunch breaks).
What if you work exactly 6 hours? Are you entitled to a lunch break then, or not?
I'm thinking about requesting a change to my working pattern when I go back, but it hinges on whether I'd get paid for 6hrs or 5.5hrs for working 8:30 to 2:30.

I work 6 hours Monday and Tuesday and I get 30 minutes paid breaks I split it into 2 x 15 mins. I work 11 hours on a Wednesday and get 1 hour unpaid lunch and 45 minute paid breaks which I split throughout the day whenever I feel like a break, Thursday I work 8 hours and get 30 minutes unpaid lunch and 30 mins paid break and Friday I do 9 hours and get 30 mins paid break and 1 hour unpaid lunch xxx
I work 4 hours on a friday and im entitled to a 15 minute break and 9 hours on a Sunday and get 1 and a half hours so I'd assume 6 hours you would get 15 minutes atleast. My breaks are not paid for x
Oh and just to say they take the break off even if I take it or not
It depends on where you live and the laws. I’m in Virginia and the labor law only requires an unpaid break for minors. If you work exactly 6 hours I would so no, if it says over 6 hours it has to be over 6 hours to get a break.
I'm in the UK.
Employment laws here require a minimum 20 minute break if you work over 6 hours, but I'm not clear on 6 hours itself.
@k1mt, if you work exactly 6 hours you don’t get a break. It has to be over 6 hours. So if you worked 6 hours and 30 mins you would get a break. Because you’re working over 6 hours.
@dontblockmesis-imjustspeakingfacts that's perfect :)
I'm thinking about requesting to work 8:30 to 2:30 (which is 6hrs), but it only works for me if I'm getting 6hrs pay each day.
Heard back from HR & they've confirmed I would get 6 hours pay for working 8:30-2:30.
Now to persuade hubby my plan might work!
